Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Barbara Center is a reviewer for insurance and is involved in multiple lawsuits (at least 4 currently) denying coverage for people with ongoing mental health issues. At least two cases were ruled in favor of the patient that the insurer had unfairly denied coverage, including a 16 year old girl who suffered from anorexia. You probably don't want someone like that treating your or your child's mental health
